We’re More Than Chocolate: Your Favorite Ice Cream Store in Blowing Rock, North Carolina

We have been America’s number one chocolate, caramel, and fudge store since our first store opened in 1947 and added ice cream to our lineup in 1985. Our ice cream is rich and creamy thanks to our commitment to the highest quality ingredients. We have dozens of delicious flavors to choose from. Ask for a sample of our Original Recipe Ice Cream and find your newest favorite dessert.

Kilwins ice cream is made with carefully selected ingredients, resulting in our superior classic flavors and unique offerings found only at Kilwins. 

We use our own freezing technique and expertly package our ice cream so it arrives at the Blowing Rock Main Street chocolate store at its very best. We have climate-controlled trucks that get our ice cream to you, ensuring a consistent texture and taste every time.

Enjoy a scoop of our ice cream in our handcrafted, made-in-store waffle cones. There’s just something magical about the first bite of Kilwins’ creamy ice cream combined with the crisp crunch of a subtly sweet waffle cone. 

Kilwins’ Frozen Delights

Ice cream isn’t the only frozen treat we’re excited to share. Our ice cream counter operates like an old-timey soda shop, offering thick, rich milkshakes and malts. 

You can also order an ice cream sundae with all the fixings or create your own with our original hot fudge or caramel. Finish by adding nuts, sprinkles, or any other additions you’d like.
